GRATITUDE LIST : SOCIAL EDITION
- grateful for all the crazy eccentric characters i've met in this life, for adding color to my life and making my days more interesting. grateful for all the experiences i've had. grateful for my photographic memory that allows me to relive all the greatest hits of my memory bank at whim.
- grateful for the timing of friendships/relationships that expired. though painful at first, their exits (or mine) often turn out to be a wonderful stroke of luck after all, and precursor to new beginnings.
- grateful for the people who have stuck around for 10, 20, 30 years, and still love me after all that!
- grateful for the kindness of strangers. it's always struck me how surprisingly nice / generous / helpful / warm / hospitable / etc total strangers can be, even though they owe me nothing and could have just as easily ignored or dismissed me.
- grateful for the virtual support group i joined which is filled with good people and totally brightened my week by making me feel authentically understood for the first time in awhile.
- grateful for my animals for their straightforward communication styles and non judgemental love and companionship. pet owners are happier and healthier than average, and it's easy to see why. animals are the the best people.
